I actually see it as connected. The fact that all of these rich and powerful people in the Epstein Files aren't in prison now is because we have a society where the rich and powerful are above the law. If that's the case, if the rich are just naturally that much better, then why bother redistributing wealth? It goes back to the foundation of Conservatism, which is the idea that Capitalism should be used to maintain a strict hierarchy.
@ItsMeMorgueUnfortunately, when the rich and powerful don't play by the same rules as the rest of us, there aren't a lot of legal options.
In some instances, that's very true. When elected Communist DemoKKKrats get rich by engaging in illegal insider trading (Nazi Pelosi, MosKKKow Bernie, Ayatollah Obama, etc) it's obvious they aren't playing by the rules.
